Blue Beetle, it was made for me specifically 10/10
-
I'm not a big movie buff, but this week I watched Sunset Boulevard and The Birds. Sunset Boulevard really impressed me.
-
Is this traditional movies only or do feature-length YouTube 'films' count, too?
-
Watched a couple movies.
The Gorge - went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. Some really cool designs for creatures and environment.
Story needed some refinement though.
Loves Hurts - I enjoyed it, but it was tonally inconsistent which really hurts the whole imo.
-
I went to see Ne Zha 2.
Honestly such a stunning movie.
-
I watched the first one a couple weeks ago, and I was struck by it. It has some really cool and unique visuals, and it just had a very different vibe than American animated movies like it. Really enjoyed it, despite the super-weak English voice acting for the dub. I’ll probably watch it again in the original Chinese before the next one is released on streaming or physical.

As a word of warning the subtitles on Ne Zha 2 were pretty quick at times, but just slow enough to get a side peek at the visuals.

Since my comment on the previous post, I've seen:
The Goonies (rewatch)
Pineapple Express (rewatch)
Nickel Boys (theater)
Flow (theater)
Speed
The Other Guys (rewatch)
Universal Soldier
My Big Fat Greek Wedding
Did a double feature with my S/O at the theater on Saturday with Nickel Boys and Flow. Both were very good in their own ways.
Lots of rewatches this week since I was just in mood to watch some of my goto comfort movies.
I'm pretty sure I've seen Speed before but it's been so long and my memory of it is so vague, I'm considering it basically a first time watch. Great action flick. Keanu is goofy and fun as usual and Sandra Bullock is very charming in her role.
Universal Soldier was very dumb and pretty much a ripoff of Terminator. Very fun action flick nonetheless. Would be a good one to watch and riff on with friends.
My Big Fat Greek Wedding was pretty good. It was interesting that it's a romcom that avoids a lot of romcom tropes and had an unconventional protagonist for the genre, but still works perfectly fine as a romcom.

Sorry to bother you (2018)
It was good. A dark comedy about exploitation in capitalism and racism. Kinda crazy, but it was fun.
Behind the mask: the rise of Leslie Vernon (2006)
Also good. Another dark comedy. A slasher/killer movie.....but from the perspective of the killer and the effort he puts into being a killer. Quite funny actually. Recommended.

Companion. I'm not usually a horror fan, but the story was really well written.
-
The World‘s Fastest Indian - old guy builds a racing motorcycle in his shed and then takes it to a race.
The Ordinaries - A fantasy world where society is divided into lead (elite) and background (working class) characters, as well as outtakes (underclass). Very meta story about stories and class in society. Can be streamed for free, might need VPN to Germany.
